Lyme Land Trust Hosts Angler and Guide for Talk on Local Fishing, March 10

LYME, CT — On Tuesday, March 10, from 7 to 8:30 p.m., Lyme Land Trust will present “Fishing the Local Waterways with Rowan Lytle” at the Lyme Public Hall, 249 Hamburg Rd. 

The program will feature local angler and registered Connecticut fishing guide Rowan Lytle, who will discuss the history of fisheries in and around Lyme, the environmental challenges they face, and the role anglers and land preservation efforts play in protecting waterways and fish habitats.

Lytle, who operates wading and canoe-based trips in central and eastern Connecticut, has fished since childhood and spends between 250 and 320 days a year on the water. An avid fly fisher since age 14, he has caught more than 160 species on the fly and has written about fishing since 2012 on his blog, Connecticut Fly Angler, as well as for various outdoor publications. He advocates for the protection of wild native fish and the ecosystems that sustain them.

The talk is open to the public. To register, email education@lymelandtrust.org.
